Description Ana.von Klopp 2004-04-29 18:42:59 UTC 
If you select the "..." button on the HTTP Monitor 
to display a value that is large (e.g. the sort of 
things you get for request attributes in Struts), 
the entire string does not fit into the three rows 
textarea on the View Value dialog. Even if you 
resize the dialog, the textarea remains the same 
size. 

The dialog and the text area should probably 
attempt to resize itself automatically (within 
reason), and if the user resizes the area 
manually, the text area should go with it. 

Also, although the "view value" coloring follows 
the color scheme of the monitor as a whole, it's 
not enough contrast so it's hard to view.

I'm going to change this to a bug and it should be fixed for Promo-D. 
A developer who uses NetBeans reported having trouble with this too.

Textfield and textarea is now being properly resized along with the
dialog.
Instead of automatic resizing I've decided to increase default
textarea size. The advantage of this is e.g. when adding new parameter
in the "Edit and Replay" dialog when even longer value can be entered
comfortably.
Textarea background color is now lighter and contrast is good enough.
